    If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

        • Erik, did Lucky send you a list?

            Agreed. It's a great album as a whole. One of the few albums picked so far that I would probably draft.
            I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

              Lucky's been sitting transfixed on Youtube trying to figure out WTF people see in The Pixies for 2 days now. His wife is getting a little bit worried.

              WHY? WHY?

                He did. Busy day at work, sorry for the delay.

                • Comments on recent picks:

                  Joy Division - never got into them
                  Public Enemy - a classic, but i'm not a big enough rap fan to purchase any rap albums.
                  Prince - Prince kicks ass..great album
                  Black Crowes - a cool band with some songs i really like...just not enough to purchase.
                  U2 - never a big fan
                  Queen - LOVE this album..Might be my favorite Queen album. "Need Your Lovin" is one of my favorites from Queen.

                      • Was all ready to go Rain Dogs in round 2, but Liz Phair didn't have an alternate album.

                          Not quite on my "want, but no chance" list. I thought I might have had a shot at Rain Dogs. You don't see much Tom Waits conversation in the Sports Bar (any?). A Mexican girl(who's-a)friend from my Uni days was obsessed with Tom Waits. She introduced me, but I didn't grow to appreciate his stuff until a few years afterwards.

                          There are some great awkward Tom Waits interviews on Yutube.

                          • Sad to see Southern Harmony And Musical Companion go. One of my favorite albums; I figured I could grab it in Round 6 or 7.

                            Ditto for The Game, easily my favorite Queen record.

                            And The Unforgettable Fire. Damn...

                            "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
                            "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

                              As a huge Queen fan, I'd recommend Sheer Heart Attack...it never really had a huge hit on the album outside of Killer Queen but from top to bottom, I think it's their best album.

                              Hey, just my thoughts.

                              BTW, I love this draft!!!! I thought about getting into it but I'm pretty boring/mainstream in my musical tastes.

                              I'm truly enjoying the picks so far.
